Clearing out the loft, I was reminded that I once was part of a team who won the BSA Quiz Night and remarkably we had Keigan Parker on our table! We all got a gift bag and still have it!

Keith Dyson used to train our youth football team & he & his goodlady Jennifer were friendly with my mum & dad. Mrs D was also a teacher at our school (Hodgson) & cut me no slack.I took 5 penalties (scored 2) against Peter Shilton at the South Paddock end in a half time competition during Keith Dysons Testimonial v Stoke. I think it was 1976.
Your not the only one Holloway has done that to, who made the quote "He only comes alive when the TV cameras are on him".Saw Holloway on central car park just after promotion to the premier. No one else was about and we were walking straight at each other, I cheerily congratulated him, he looked me up an down then sneered and walked straight past, without so much a word. Miserable git
Don't tell anybody these days that you're delivering Corona - unless you are stood at least two metres away1. Once net Billy Rafferty at my Dentist
2. Mickey Burns used to live opposite my brother in Newton-with-scales and if we were there on a Sunday afternoon used to regularly stand next to him in the Ice Cream van queue
3. Used to deliver pop(Corona Saturday lad) to Burridges landlady and he regularly answered the door
As a kid with my mates I used to play on grammar fields regularly against Billy Ronson and his mates using the hockey nets as goals.Three off the top of my head
1. Played footy hundreds of times with Iain Hesford on "the green" that used to be opposite Cleveleys bus station. Once scored a goal against him in a school game. (The big Sacred Heart versus Beach Road Thornton Cleveleys derby of 1971).
2. Played occasional games with Billy Ronson on the old Fleetwood Grammar fields.
3. Peter Suddaby taught me maths and footy at school
It was a bit weird. I wasn't in his face it was a cheery "congratulations Ian" with a smile on my face. He looked at me as though I'd mortally offended him, really strangeYour not the only one Holloway has done that to, who made the quote "He only comes alive when the TV cameras are on him".

Yep, me Rob Gaz and Paul Edge founded Kingsfield in 1970/71. I played for them for nearly ten years. Edgy sits on same row as me at Bloomfield Rd and used to see Rob when we were in south stand. Still see him occasionally. Presume you know me by name.Played for Gaz when he managed No 3 Kingsfield for a couple of seasons in Saturday Combination. Great Bloke and sadly missed.
Played alongside Rob at Kingsfield late 80's / early 90's. Another good lad, and was my neighbour too for a while.
Get the proper team photo up mate ,you know the one.
